The past year, the real danger of lithium ion batteries have been highlighted quite a bit. From Samsungs embarrassing rush job resulting in flying bans, and the recent iPhone CPU throttling fiasco, you’d think folks would be well versed in basic battery safety by now.

- In your hand.
- In a bag in your hand.
- Between your sharp, boney protrusions in your mouth.
